I was waiting for a good shot of my last knitting project, N's shawl, to post about it, but alas that shot never came. This daughter of mine has very specific ideas of what sorts of garments that she wants to put on her body. The shawl had to be pink and it had to have a hood.
I settled on Knitting Pure and Simple's Children's Poncho and knit it out of some handspun cotton that I found at our local yarn store. The end product is possibly, no definitely, the most beautiful thing I have ever made. Because I made it in December around our Christmas tree, little bits on tinsel, shimmery silver threads, are knit right into the fabric.
It sparkles just like the little girl who wears it.
